MCLEAN, Va. — A Michigan man pleaded guilty Friday to accepting $70,000 from Chinese spies as he attempted to secure jobs with the CIA and U.S. Foreign Service that would have allowed him to expose U.S. government secrets.

Glenn D. Shriver, 28, of Grand Rapids, Mich., acknowledged Friday in U.S. District Court that he sought the jobs with the intent of selling classified information to Beijing.

In 2005 and 2006, Shriver took the Foreign Service exam but failed both times. In 2007, Shriver applied for a job with the CIA, but his intentions were discovered early in the hiring process, officials said.
